Another Vampire Diaries promo:
You know, between Twitlight and this, I've started to wonder: Why do these vampire guys bother going to high school? I mean... it's frickin' creepy, is what it is. I prefer they lurk. Of course, it's only these magically daytime-safe vampires who CAN go to school, but WHY WOULD THEY WANT TO? It's not like there are truant officers scouring towns anymore. Especially not for guys who are clearly at least in their 20's. The only think I can think of is that they want to stalk high school girls.
Geeze, at least Buffy was the Slayer -- she could take care of herself. I don't know... I think this show might end up being too Twilight Creepy for me. We'll see, I guess.

I'm curious if anyone has invites to An Archive of Our Own? I've been wanting to try it for a while now, and I would love to have someplace to post all of my fic besides LJ and my site. And of course, my site's a big mess, so.... Eh.
Anyway, if you're involved and have an invite, I would love one.

Mmmm. I just had the most delicious Caesar salad. I am appropriately ashamed at the bad environmental karma I collected, because not only wasn't it local produce, it was a DOLE BAGGED SALAD. They were on sale, and I'm really, really broke, ya'll. I was literally dying for some cool, fresh veggies. We almost never have them in our house anymore, as we're waiting for our own garden to be ready for harvest. I was read about, I think it was in New Jersey? That there's a program where people with Food Stamps can spend them on fresh food in the farmers' markets. Man, I would love to do that. Of course, I share a house owned by my parents, and they refuse to disclose their finances, so I can't even GET food stamps. How's that for a Catch-22? *sigh*
ANYWAY, wah wah I'm poor. YUMMY SALAD. I put jalapenos on it, chopped up the one tomato and 1/2 red pepper we had in the house. The salad kit came with "fresh" parmesan that you crumble up, a delicious creamy caesar dressing, and yummy croutons. IT WAS THE BEST SALAD EVER.
Okay, maybe in a really long time, then. Remember the days when I used to go to the steak house salad bar and have Fat Salads for lunch for $5/shot? It was like 3 pounds of Romaine lettuce, baby carrots, pepperoni, shredded cheese, chunky blue cheese dressing, balsamic vinegar, sauteed mushrooms and fresh bread croutons. Mmmm. So yummy and slimy and gross.
Man, I'm hungry for more salad.

Okay, there's just no way to be sad or grumpy after you see and hear this. Borrowed from my friend
lizardjee, whose son is totally obsessed with it. I don't blame him, actually. :

If you haven't pet my baby dragon yet, please do. She's only got 3 days to grow up before she DIES. Gods, that's horrible! What kind of sadistic game is this? *cries*

Ha, probably so! I hadn't seen much about Diaries yet but I was not impressed by the preview.
I haven't tried the Caesar but I have tried other kits they have and enjoyed them.
I just got an account at Archive and hadn't realized we might get invites to hand out. I'll post about them if I do though.
How do you like it so far?
Oh, the Caesar is GOOD. You have to make sure to get the one with all the extras, though. They make the deal sweet. *G*
I confess, I'm less and less thrilled about VD (heh) the more previews I see. I really enjoy the books, but I'm not sure if the translation is going to work for me. We'll see, I guess!
Must be someone else because I don't write fic, so I haven't had anything to post. However some weeks ago I sent a bug fix notice because for some reason I was unable to comment on someone's fic. Someone got back to me and I tried again but still no go. So my guess is that people who report problems get account offers? Which kind of makes sense since it's in beta.
I literally just got the account a few hours before I commented! And I'm about to have company for a week so I don't know that I'm going to be able to use it anytime soon. Maybe having an account set up will help with any commenting problems though.
I'll keep an eye out for a kit sale. We usually get the bagged salads because it's tough to get that many different lettuces in a normal week (unless we want most of it to spoil). But the kits aren't on sale as frequently.
VD! *snorts*
BUT THEY'RE SO GOOD!
My folks actually have Romaine in their garden this year, but I have no idea how that's going to turn out. I can only hope well!
Hm. Perhaps I'll lurk about AO3 and see if I can find any bugs. ;)
